TJF588 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 After blasting through all I care to for my (seven deaths/continues...) Proud playthrough save for tackling the gummi ship missions, I was still some time away from 100hrs, which I came to learn could be used to revalidate my game save for the Speedster trophy. So now, after leaving my PS3 running for yesterday, last night, and today, I'm a few hours from a dilemma: Should I go ahead and knock this trophy out for sake of coming closer to completion, or...Should I go for it legitimately, especially considering the world record's in the three-hour range?On one hand, I could see it as a hallmark of a flaw in the timer's design, a reminder of the humorous work-overs of game system. On the other, I could rise to the occasion for a game I'm fond of, and keep it as a reminder of yet another way I'd've played. Just...do I care enough about Kingdom Hearts to do a speedrun when there's no in-game purpose for it? I mean, I've pushed myself through some Metroid: Zero Mission for gallery unlocks, but this is just for the metagame. And even if I decide to speedrun it later, I'd have a save file if I needed to prove it to the 0 people who care.How would any'a youse weigh in on this?

Goekie Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Are you saying that after having played this game for nearly 100 hours you can't be bothered to play it just once more for a quick trophy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJF588 Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Well, more like 60-70, not counting resets. I've just had it running besides. To do it now is to take on the final boss rush as an Übermensch. To do it legitimately is to decide if I also want to go for Unchanging Armor as part of my Final Mix run, since I'd prolly wanna do Speedster (and Undefeated?) on Eazi Modo.EDIT: I think I'm gonna sacrifice this'n to the revel of cheesing it. If I feel like proving myself later, screenshot evidence'll suffice. We're all dead, in due time, so I'll do as I cheese.EDIT2: Well, deed is done. But, to my benefit (aside from some KH3D deets), I'm now following Cyberman on Twitch. Edited March 27, 2014 by TJF588 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil_Spooky Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I know this comes out late but anyway, might be usefull for anyone wondering about it in the future... You'll have to play the game on easy for the trophy and you can do the speedster, undefeated and unchanging armor in less then 5 hours easily so waiting for the clock to reset is not only a waste of normal time but it would also take you more time in the end.

Addy7stt Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Go for it legit. 15 hours is a joke. Even on proud you can get in the three hour range and it is a cool experience. Bizkit047 got a 2:52:42 a couple days ago http://www.twitch.tv/bizkit047/c/4127928 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrayEidolon Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I'm currently doing my Normal/Final Mix playthrough and I'm doing Speedster + No Continues on this run too! I've already reached End of the World with plenty of time to spare! I never obtained Aero & Thunder on this playthrough but oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrayEidolon Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Yeah, final boss is a pain in the ass with just the Kingdom Key and I was at level 63 or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil_Spooky Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Yeah, final boss is a pain in the ass with just the Kingdom Key and I was at level 63 or something! He's not that hard, I was only around level 40-45 and only died to him once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrayEidolon Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 He's not that hard, I was only around level 40-45 and only died to him once. Sorry I didn't mean he was hard. I meant it just took too long because of the terribly low damage being inflicted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shakilrahman96 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Go legit honestly, 15 hours is more than a generous time given in my opinion if you skip all cutscenes! I got the platinum a few months back and I would recommend killing a few birds in one stone using this method... 1: Choose beginner difficulty (to get bronze trophy upon completion)2: Do not change your weapon for the entirety of the game that includes armour and party member's armour (to get silver trophy)3: Do NOT die or if you do? "Load game" not continue, but you shouldn't be dying despite the lack of armour it IS beginner mode. 4: You do NOT need to do either A: Atlantica B: Halloweentown, I'd say skip Atlantica due to the hard Ursula boss and all the stupid and awkward backtracking. 5: Skip cutscenes and use the free power ups on Sora which are given on Beginner modeI did it in about 9hrs 13 mins I think, more than enough time besides it is much quicker than allowing 100hrs accumulate on your save file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirFreecss Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I don't understand the matter of the clock and 100 hours, each save has it's own clock which indicates the playtime, hasn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil_Spooky Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I don't understand the matter of the clock and 100 hours, each save has it's own clock which indicates the playtime, hasn't it? Yes, but if your save hits the 100 hours the clock will reset to 0, so if you finish the game after that and before the clock reaches the 15 hours again you'll unlock the trophy. It's a waste of time though, because replaying the game again on beginner you'll reach the end in less time then the time you'll waste waiting for the clock to reset, even if you do everything else in the game.

Wow, I didn't know there was such a glitch. Anyway, it's not worth it, as you say it is really easy, I even got it right now in my Proud run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TYTAN-P009 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I like these kind of trophies, not only for the challenge, but because it forces to approach the game from a different perspective. I did this along with the unchanging armor, and no deaths on easy mode. Go for it. Also if you like this type of challenge, play Muramasa Rebirth; I got the trophy for beating the game in under three hours with about a two minutes to spare.

Anyway, it's not worth it, as you say it is really easy, I even got it right now in my Proud run It's not really a glitch, the clock resets and changes colors everytime it reaches 99:59, but the trophy is probably programed to unlock by checking if the time is <15:00 so it doesn't even knows it's way over 100 hours. Anyway it's really easy, I got mine on Beginner together with Undefeated and Unchanging Armour at around 4:30 hours at level 44 by just skipping every non mandatory fight, Olympus, 100 acre woods and Atlantica.
